Summary of City of Litchfield work

Historic District

Since much of the Highway 12 reconstruction project is located within and near the Litchfield Historic Commercial District and other historic properties, the Section 106 review process is a crucial component to the project. MnDOT is working closely with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and other appropriate parties to successfully complete the Section 106 process.
